The candidates will have three minutes for an opening statement, two minutes for a closing statement, and two minutes to answer each of the following questions (which are the same questions asked of the District 4 City Council applicants):

Why are you interested in serving on the City Council?

In your opinion, what are the two most pressing issues facing the City of San Leandro and how best should the City Council address these issues?

How have you remained current and informed on city issues?

Please summarize your experiences in community activities or issues affecting the City of San Leandro and could you give specific examples of your personal involvement?

Have you even been part of a successful team and if so, what did you contribute to make it successful?

Is there anything else you wish to share with the council that has not been covered in your interview this evening?

This is the first of two scheduled forums featuring San Leandro candidates. A second forum is scheduled for Tuesday, September 25 at 6pm at the Marina Community Center.
